What Is Evergro Bone Meal?
Evergro Bone Meal is a granular organic fertilizer produced from processed bone material.
It provides an NPK analysis of 2-14-0, meaning it contains nitrogen and a higher percentage of phosphorus, with no listed potassium.
Phosphorus plays an important role in root development, energy transfer, and reproductive growth. Consequently, plants benefit from adequate phosphorus during establishment and flowering.
Bone meal also supplies calcium, an essential nutrient for healthy plant structure.
Benefits of Organic Bone Meal
Encourages Strong Root Development
Phosphorus supports root establishment and healthy plant development. This makes bone meal particularly useful when transplanting young plants, shrubs, and perennials.
Supports Bulb Development
Bulbs benefit from adequate phosphorus during root establishment and seasonal growth. Apply bone meal when planting tulips, daffodils, lilies, and other flowering bulbs.
Supports Flowering Plants
Roses, flowering shrubs, and perennial gardens need balanced nutrition throughout the growing season. Bone meal provides an additional phosphorus source where soil conditions require it.
Provides Calcium
Bone meal naturally contains calcium. Plants use calcium to support cell walls and normal growth.
Gradual Nutrient Availability
Unlike highly soluble fertilizers, bone meal breaks down gradually through soil moisture and microbial activity. Therefore, its nutrients become available over time.
Actual nutrient availability depends on soil conditions, pH, moisture, and biological activity.
Ideal Applications
Evergro Organic Bone Meal works well in many garden applications.
Bulbs and Perennials
Mix into the planting area when establishing tulips, daffodils, lilies, peonies, and other perennials.
Roses and Flowering Shrubs
Use as a supplemental phosphorus source around established roses and flowering shrubs when soil conditions indicate a need.
Trees and Evergreens
Incorporate into the planting soil when establishing suitable trees and evergreen shrubs.
Vegetable Gardens
Add to garden soil when phosphorus is needed, particularly when preparing planting areas for crops with established root systems.
Transplanting
Bone meal is particularly useful when preparing soil for new plants. Incorporate it into the surrounding soil rather than placing concentrated fertilizer directly against roots.
Composting
Bone meal can also be incorporated into compost as an organic nutrient source.
How to Use Evergro Bone Meal
For best results, incorporate bone meal into the soil where plant roots can access it.
- Mix into soil when planting bulbs and perennials.
- Incorporate into planting beds before transplanting.
- Apply around established plants according to package directions.
- Water the area after application.
- Avoid placing concentrated material directly against plant stems or roots.
Use the application rates printed on your product packaging. Soil testing can help determine whether additional phosphorus is necessary.
Important: Bone meal is not a complete fertilizer. Its 2-14-0 analysis provides limited nitrogen and no potassium. Combine it with an appropriate complete fertilizer when plants require additional nutrients.
Important Growing Information
Bone meal works best when soil conditions allow phosphorus to become available.
Soil pH influences phosphorus availability. In strongly alkaline soils, bone meal may break down slowly and provide less immediately available phosphorus.
Avoid unnecessary phosphorus applications. Excess phosphorus can accumulate in soil and interfere with the availability of certain micronutrients.
Bone meal is also an animal-derived product. Store it securely to prevent pets and wildlife from disturbing treated areas.
